The system is rigged

When John has a lethal encounter with ship-kun during a fishing trip, he is transmigrated into the body of a dirty teenager. Clueless in a foreign world, he is soon chased by an angry gang of delinquents lead by the local bully. Running for his life, he steals a barrel and floats away down the river while giving them the finger. “Ding! Congratulations host for achieving the hidden requirement ‘steal a ship and start your voyage’. You have unlocked the piracy system!!!” Thus begins the tale of greatest pirate to sail the seas. —————————- Author here, as a Webnovel enthusiast I’ve read my fair share of system and transmigration novels. Noticing that most pirate related stories on this platform were fanfics of a certain rubber captain’s story, I thought I’d go in a different direction. The world of pirates/merchants/ships and sailing has so much riches to dig up. So I hope you’ll enjoy this. Unfortunately, I’m still studying full time and working on another novel so this one will only be updated sporadically when I’m inspired or in the mood.
